Happens every time
Every breath I take is shortened now
Leave it all behind
Embracing the cold winter sun
And awaiting spring
Left so restless now
Everything that was, turned to snow
Coming avalanche, take me from the ashes that I know
Take me from the
Sleepless nights, filled with ire
Take the rest of my life
Deafening sound, takes me down
Hearing their songs again
Free from inhibition, free to see
I’ve never been so fucking free
I'll never come down from this high
I’ll bleed myself dry
Winter upon me, blinding just like in my dreams
Taking me under
Where I'll never be at ease
Rest isn’t easy
Lying on the dying leaves
It keeps me under
Disillusionment, the fee
In the blizzard I find myself
Snowblind, sun high and yet unfelt
Gathered rust, built up like a glove
Drowning in the security, of
Empty gestures beneath the sky
In our madness, we ask not why
What it means to be mortified
Crack in the ice, hole in the sky
My last goodbye
They turned to me as if to say
It’s about time you lost your way
With forlorn pause upon my brow
Backing Vox: (And with my)
My last embrace, my final vow
The taste of spring upon my tongue
Yet frigid winter still rolls on
Perhaps I’ll lie right here a while
I lost my mind but I feel fine
